I'll Give You the Sun by Jandy Nelson

4.0

I am not completely in love with this book, as I thought I would be, but I still like it very much and I think it is brilliant. What impressed me the most was not the story, even though it was quite surprising, it was writing. With that I am in love with. I mean, the writing is genius, it's so freaking good!

I have very contradictory feelings concerning the characters. I hated Jude and their father at first, but it turns out they're not what I thought they were. I loved Brian and their mother at first, but they did some pretty awful things, so... Noah is nice and I like him, but he is not my favorite character. I think my favorite character would probably be Oscar or Guillermo.

This story is very sad, beautiful, touching and heartbreaking and it deals with real life issues, which is important. I repeat, this book is amazing but it is not one of my favorites.
